How do we apply pattern literacy learned from ocean life to the land? What have we learned from our historically colonial approach to surf culture? How do we move ourselves and our culture forward in regenerative ways that favour meaningful relationship within our own community and the living world? 

Homesteading surfer, filmmaker and entrepreneur Cyrus Sutton invites us to engage with these questions, and more, in our omnivorous conversation about leaving pro surfing and Southern California, cultivating mentorships, permaculture, intergenerational relationship, questioning the assumptions of the environmental movement and the value of B Corps.

Cyrus Sutton is best known  for his skill across diverse wave crafts and his creative reflections of surf culture via movies like Riding Waves, Under the Sun and Stoked and Broke. Cyrus is founder of Kordouroy.tv  and Manda Organic Skincare.
